Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 529

Anne gently scraped the thin layer of cream on top of the dessert and took a bite of it. A bitter, obnoxious feeling churned inside her.

She turned to look at Kevin. The man was eating slowly as if he could feel nothing.

Anne's nose involuntarily crinkled as she couldn't stomach the food.

"Mom, isn't it delicious?" Ella looked at Anne with wide, expectant eyes.

Anne nodded. "Yes, it is yummy!"

The two somehow managed to finish the dessert and found an excuse to leave the hospital. They quickly got into the car and drove to the police station.

The dead body was sent to the police station for inspection. They had to take a DNA test to find out if it was Colin or not.

"Mr. and Mrs. Fu, the corpse is decayed beyond recognition. We can't identify the person. You two, please wait here. Otherwise, it might scare you." The policeman covered his mouth with a handkerchief and walked in.

They had never seen such a disgusting corpse in their experience. Even brave police officers couldn't look at it.

Anne and Kevin agreed to stay back. They couldn't witness the cruel scene.

The two sat on the chairs, waiting for the police. Every minute felt like an hour.

After what seemed like forever, a policeman walked out. "Mr. and Mrs. Fu, the results are out. It is not Mr. Colin."

Anne's eyes lit up with joy. "That's great! Wonderful!" She clapped her hands excitedly.

The nagging sensation in her heart finally ceased. They were happy that it wasn't Colin. It gave them the hope that the man was alive somewhere.

Kevin closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

The two walked out of the police station. It was a bright, sunny day. The two held hands and looked at the clear sky.

Life was filled with ups and downs. However, they weren't afraid of the obstacles and difficulties that laid ahead. Their love was stronger than any problem in the world. They could rise above everything as long as they had each other.

Just then, Anne's phone rang. She squinted at the unknown number flashing on the screen.

Kevin leaned closer and saw the caller ID. "It looks like an international call."

A frown lined Anne's forehead. They didn't have any close friends who lived abroad.

"You will know who it is, only if you answer the call." "Hello," Anne answered hesitantly.

She heard a burst of faint laughter. "Guess who I am," said a tender voice.

Anne's lips curled up.

"Peter?" she asked, shaking her head.

"Clever woman! Yes, this is Peter." He laughed and continued, "It's been a long time since I spoke to you. I thought that you'd have forgotten me."

"No, I will never forget you," admitted Anne.

After all, he was the guy who saved her from Kim. But he was the one who had caused endless problems as well. How could she forget him?

"What's wrong? You sound tired. Is everything all right?" Peter asked concernedly.

"Nothing serious. Don't worry," Anne assured.

Peter talked about random things before hanging up the call.

A faint smile tugged at the corners of Anne's lips as she looked at the phone. "I am happy that he has started a new life in a different country. Good for him."

Some people had fallen prey to their obsession and dug their own graves. But Peter seemed to have walked out from the past.

Kevin nodded. He liked Peter better than Ryan.

After all, Peter was sensible; he kept his hands off Anne.

"By the way, how is Cherry?" Anne asked. She had been busy lately and didn't know what had happened to her. Everyone got to know about the woman's true identity, but Anne didn't know the entire story.

Kevin rubbed his temples and sighed. "Well, people know her real identity now. The evidence proves that she is Cherry. It is a serious case; the police will imprison her. She won't be able to free herself from the charges. She might have to spend the rest of her life in jail."

Cherry had tried every means to contact Kevin. But the assistant refused to connect to him.

In the prison.

Alan sat on the chair and quietly looked at Cherry through the glass. The woman looked pale and lifeless as if she had aged ten years. She was no longer the glamorous diva who ruled the entertainment industry.

Alan frowned and placed his hand over his chest. Her miserable condition didn't bring him any joy.

He had been waiting for this day. But he wasn't happy even after avenging his sister's death. Alan couldn't understand why.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Cherry spat venomously. She was no longer the obedient woman who listened to his every word.

She was in jail now and had no reason to be afraid of him.

"Alan, are you happy now? You have managed to lock me up in jail again. Your dreams have come true!" she hissed through her teeth. Tears welled up in her eyes as she glared at him.

Cherry had tried hard to escape from punishment, but Alan had managed to send her back to jail again. She couldn't stay here any longer. She wanted to go out and live her life as Kristine.

But no one could save her now.

She had tried calling Kevin, but he ignored her. He didn't care about what happened to her.
